Job summary

Pennylane is seeking an experienced senior operator to join our fast-growing fintech team. You will partner with the VP of Strategic Initiatives and the executive committee to bring clarity, momentum, and structure to Pennylane’s rhythms, from OKRs to board preparation.

This role is a high-leverage operating position designed for someone early in an ambitious career who wants exposure to scale-up dynamics and tangible organizational impact.

Qualifications

• 3–7 years of experience in top-tier management consulting and/or an operating role in a fast-growing company.
• Outstanding organizational judgment—you can distinguish what requires executive attention from what should be resolved elsewhere.
• A structured, concise communicator who can turn complex inputs into a clear agenda, decision, or executive-level document.

• Running leadership rhythms. Structure agendas, preparation, and follow-through for key executive and leadership forums.
• Turning priorities into an operating cadence. Coordinate definition, cascade, and tracking of company OKRs; surface misalignment and risks.
• Strengthening cross-functional follow-through. Ensure consistent review of major initiatives through steering committees and reporting.
• Preparing high-stakes moments. Coordinate materials for Board meetings, offsites, annual planning, and company communications.
• Improving the system. Identify where information is lost or decisions stall and design lightweight processes to move faster.
